Chapter 159 It’s too scary. You can’t stand it.

Jia Luo and Wan Yan gritted their teeth and held up their shields with great effort. Their bodies were shaking from the powerful force, but their eyes revealed incomparable determination.

The young man in white was also standing by, trying his best to inject his spiritual power into the shield, hoping to relieve some of the pressure for them.

After a fierce confrontation, the dark red light finally dissipated gradually, and the black mist in the sky also dissipated, and everything returned to calm.

The old witch also exploded and her body disappeared without a trace.

The young man in white looked at the place where the old witch disappeared, tears welled up in his eyes, his knees went weak, and he fell to the ground.

His shoulders trembled slightly, and he murmured, "Master, why don't you turn back..."

The voice was filled with endless sorrow and regret, echoing in the silent mountains and forests.

"Fourth Senior Brother, why haven't I seen the ghost of that old witch?" Jia Luo asked Wan Yan in a low voice.

Wan Yan sighed and whispered, "She blew herself up, her soul must have been shattered into pieces!"

"Oh, is that so?" Jia Luo lowered her eyes slightly, but a trace of doubt arose in her heart. She always felt that things would not be so simple.

After thinking for a moment, she whispered to Wan Yan, "Fourth Senior Brother, I'll use my spiritual power to look for her, so that this old witch won't run away!"

Although Wan Yan felt that there was little hope, seeing Jia Luo's determination, he nodded in agreement.

Jia Luo closed his eyes and concentrated again. His spiritual power slowly stretched out like a thin thread, searching the surroundings inch by inch.

After a moment, her eyebrows suddenly frowned, as if she realized something.

At the same time, the originally calm air began to ripple strangely, and a vague shadow loomed in the ruins not far away.

"There!"

Jia Luo let out a low cry, and his figure flashed, instantly appearing in front of the shadow.

When everyone looked closely, they found that the shadow was the remaining soul of the old witch. Although its body was illusory and its face was distorted, it still exuded a trace of resentment.

"Humph, you want to kill me? That's not that easy!"

The remaining soul of the old witch made a series of sharp and piercing sounds, and raised its hand to send a black soul power wave towards Jia Luo.

Jia Luo was prepared. He swung the peach wood sword and his spiritual power surged, blocking all the soul power waves.

The young man in white couldn't see the old witch's ghost, but from their actions, he knew that his master was still causing trouble.

He knelt on the ground and shouted in the direction of their fight, "Master, you have come to this point, why are you still unwilling to stop? Master, please turn back!"

However, the old witch seemed not to hear the cries of the young man in white. Her remaining soul was still dancing wildly, and the resentment in her eyes seemed to turn into substance and swept towards Jia Luo.

Jia Luo did not dare to be careless. The peach wood sword in his hand drew complicated sword marks in the air. The spiritual power shone brightly and he barely resisted this wave of attacks. He then threw out a talisman to trap the old witch's soul in it.

Then he separated a strand of his spiritual power and quietly probed into the depths of the old witch's remaining soul.

In the chaotic vortex of soul power, Jia Luo captured one picture after another.

The old witch was once a gifted dragon magician, but due to being ostracized by her master and betrayed by her lover, she gradually went astray. She poured all her resentment and unwillingness into the Dragon King Art, trying to prove herself with her strength.

Seeing this, Jia Luo shouted, "Mother-in-law, although you have suffered a lot in the past, you will never be able to recover if you make the same mistake again! Let go of your resentment and start over!"

Upon hearing this, the remaining soul of the old witch froze for a moment, as if it was touched.

"Humph, I don't regret anything in the past, and I don't want to start over again!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the figure of the old witch in the middle of the talisman paper disappeared, turned into tiny dots of light, and merged into the mountains and forests.

Seeing this, Jia Luo frowned, thinking to himself that this old witch's resentment was so deep that even if it came to this, she would rather die than let go of her hatred.

"Big Brother, your master..."

Jia Luo sighed, squatted down, patted the white-clothed boy's shoulder, and said softly: "Brother, don't be too sad. Although your master is very obsessed, she may have a little kindness in her heart. Maybe you are the only kindness she has left in this world."

The young man in white raised his head and nodded heavily.

After a long while, Jia Luo finally asked, "Big brother, what about the dragon array on this mountain?"

"The Dragon King is dead, and the dragon array has disappeared!"

Upon hearing this, Jia Luo nodded slightly, feeling a little comforted.

She looked around at the peaceful forest that had returned to its former glory, and secretly rejoiced that the crisis had finally been resolved.

Jia Luo bit his lip and spoke hesitantly: "Big brother, there is one more thing I want to ask you!"

The young man in white returned to his usual cold demeanor and said in a deep voice, "You say!"

"The corpses of those who broke into this forest..."

Jia Luo's voice was filled with a hint of pity, and his eyes looked deep into the forest.

"Most of them died innocently. We can't just abandon them in the wilderness. I want the police to help them find their families and let them return to their families."

When the young man in white heard this, a complex emotion flashed across his eyes. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke: "Their bodies are all in the cave in the back mountain!"

"Let's go and take a look!" Wan Yan looked solemn, and was about to walk towards the back mountain.

The young man in white hurriedly stopped him: "Don't, don't go!"

Wan Yan asked doubtfully, "What's wrong?"

The young man in white frowned and shuddered when he thought of the scene where he had inadvertently barged in before.

"It's horrible, you can't bear it!" His voice trembled slightly, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes.

"There are not only corpses in the cave, but also some remnants of the snake array that Master had set up. Although they are useless, they grow by gnawing on corpses and are no longer ordinary insects."

"Big brother, it's okay. We can go and deal with those bugs!" Jialuo said in a baby voice.

The young man in white nodded and walked towards the back mountain step by step.

Soon, everyone approached the cave.

Before I got really close, a strong, pungent stench wafted out.

Jia Luo suppressed the discomfort in his stomach and put a talisman on himself and Wen Lingyue to block their sense of smell.

"That's much better!" Jia Luo breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at the young man in white and Wan Yan beside him: "Fourth Senior Brother, Big Brother, you guys should be careful."

Having said that, she took out a handful of specially made talisman papers from her arms. Spiritual energy was flowing on these talisman papers, and they were flashing with a faint light, obviously having been specially blessed.

The three of them walked cautiously into the cave. As they went deeper, the stench became stronger.

Even with the talisman paper blocking my sense of smell, I could still smell the faint odor entering my nasal cavity, making me feel like vomiting.

Suddenly, a dense mass of black shadows appeared in front of us. It turned out to be countless insects that heard the noise and swarmed over like a tide.

These insects were glowing with dim light, with their mouths wide open, looking extremely ferocious. Some of them were entangled and rolling around each other, making creepy "hissing" sounds.

Jia Luo exclaimed: "You came just in time!"

The talisman in his hand was instantly ignited by spiritual power, turning into lines of fire that flew towards the swarm of insects.

Wherever the fire line passed, the insects screamed sharply and twisted their bodies desperately to avoid it, but they were tightly entangled by the spiritual flames.

For a moment, the fire in the cave flickered, illuminating the dark space and allowing everyone to see the more horrific scene around them. On the cave wall, there were remnants of flesh that had not been eaten clean, and some blurred scratches, as if telling of the despair that had once occurred here.

Jia Luo's heart tightened, his eyes were filled with anger, and he urged the spiritual power of the talisman in his hand to become more and more powerful, vowing to completely wipe out these evil parasites.

Wan Yan was also not idle. He kept casting talismans in his hand and launched a fierce attack on the swarm of insects.

The young man in white stood aside, using his spiritual power to protect himself and Wen Lingyue to prevent any fish that had escaped the net from taking advantage of the opportunity to sneak in.

However, there were too many insects. As one wave fell, another wave came to replace them, as if there was no end.

Jia Luo was extremely anxious, with beads of sweat rolling down his forehead.

She bit her lower lip and took out a golden talisman from her pocket, "Go!"

Jia Luo threw the golden talisman paper with all his strength. The talisman paper emitted a dazzling light in the air and instantly turned into a sea of ​​fire. The blazing flames swept around with the momentum of purifying everything.

Those insects instantly turned into ashes in the sea of ​​fire, leaving only slight crackling sounds.
